When explaining about structural classifications to a group of students, the instructor discusses the peptides and proteins. The

instructor talks about small hormones and hormones as large and complex as growth hormone (GH), which has approximately how many amino acids involved?

Answer:

There are approximately 200 amino acids.

Explanation:

Proteins are usually larger than peptides. In addition, proteins contains amino acids which are about 50 and more than while the amino acids in peptides are just between 2 and 50. On the other hand, growth hormone which is also known as somatotropin is a type of peptide cell regeneration, growth, and reproduction. The number of amino acids in the growth hormones are approximately 200.

What is oxidized in a galvanic cell with aluminum and gold electrodes ?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Aluminum metal

Explanation:

In order to properly answer this or a similar question, we need to know some basic rules about galvanic cells and standard reduction potentials.

First of all, your strategy would be to find a trusted source or the table of standard reduction potentials. You would then need to find the half-equations for aluminum and gold reduction:

Al^{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Al; E^o=-1.66 V

Au^{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Au; E^o=1.50 V

Since we have a galvanic cell, the overall reaction is spontaneous. A spontaneous reaction indicates that the overall cell potential should be positive.

Since one half-equation should be an oxidation reaction (oxidation is loss of electrons) and one should be a reduction reaction (reduction is gain of electrons), one of these should be reversed.

Thinking simply, if the overall cell potential would be obtained by adding the two potentials, in order to acquite a positive number in the sum of potentials, we may only reverse the half-equation of aluminum (this would change the sign of E to positive):Al\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3e^-; E^o=1.66 V\\Au^{3+}+3e^-\rightarrow Au; E^o=1.50 V

Notice that the overall cell potential upon summing is:

E_{cell}=1.66 V + 1.50 V=3.16 V

Meaning we obey the law of galvanic cells.

Since oxidation is loss of electrons, notice that the loss of electrons takes place in the half-equation of aluminum: solid aluminum electrode loses 3 electrons to become aluminum cation.

The half-life of a first-order reaction is 13 min. If the initial concentration of reactant is 0.085 M, how long would it take u
olasank [31]

Answer: It will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M

Explanation:

The time after which 99.9% reactions gets completed is 40 minutes

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = let initial amount of the reactant

a - x = amount left after decay process  

a) for completion of half life:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{13min}=0.053min^{-1}

b)  Time taken for 0.085 M to decrease to 0.055 M

t=\frac{2.303}{0.053}\log\frac{0.085}{0.055}

t=8.2min

Thus it will take 8.2 minutes until the concentration decreases to 0.055 M

Answer: sun is directly over the equator

Explanation:

There are only two times of the year when the Earth's axis is tilted neither toward nor away from the sun, resulting in a "nearly" equal amount of daylight and darkness at all latitudes.
